And my take to repeat. How fast was the Beemer on it's fast leg at terminal
speed? I don't know. Possibly faster than 199. But since we can't compare
apples and oranges we will never know which was faster. Jesse gives us his
terminal speed on his fastest run of the day. No fair.     RF

Simply answer this question...  who's got the fastest Hydrogen powered car in
the world?
 
Not how was it done... what procedures so on and so forth... Just the facts
here... Who's the fastest???
 
Yes it's more difficult to follow the FIA guidelines... without question...
yes a two way run over a Mile is more difficult and dare I say even more
credible... but Wait... Credible to WHO???  and when the only thing you care
about is who's the fastest... What's the difference? the question isn't who's
the fastest over a mile or according to Hoyle.. the question is... "WHO IS THE
FASTEST"...
 
So anyway... there you go... my take on it...
